As a Papuan, Thank you for step in and showing this documentary of my people to another area of the world. We (as indigenous people) are very kind and very welcome towards new people as long as you are with another local and being accepted by the head of the tribe.. If you come with good intentions, The mother earth of Papua will be with you. I want to highlight that "not all tribe eat human in Papua", Most of them already are getting influenced by Church, so they are more open to outsiders. Again, Thanks alot drew. Hope you'll be visiting again for another amazing tribe in Papua! 💕

[@SparkingLife111]

U mention Church, do u mean a religious church? Who do they worship now is there a spirit or god or something they believe in? How do they think we come into existence as humans on earth? I'm not sure you know the answers I'm just curious I thought I would ask thanks in advance for any information

@@SparkingLife111 We have a lot of tribes here, each area land have their own native tribe.. What drew mention is in South Papua, the area between Asmat Tribe (the famous one), Muyu Tribe. I am from Mee Tribe (Ekari Tribe), from Our Grandparents used to tell us that they used to believe that there is superior spirit that watching us, it impact on how they lived like certain social values based on how they believe the ancestor respond. For example "They don't steal from somebody's garden, they will have skin diseases because the God is watching or you can't have intercourse outside of *Marriage* if other people in the tribe find out, they will hanging them and shoot them with arrow because both of girl and boy violet the laws as the tribe believe", They don't have the kind of rituals like you see in the movie. Of course, it happened before Missionaries and Government came. And different tribe has different story. For now, most of the tribes here is have a taste of Christian Values, Catholic value, also Islamic Value. But also some of them still hold their cultural values as well.. the influenced by those making most of tribe here open to the modern world/people. I hope this help. Again, I just giving additional info as Papuan here.

[@amd_93]

This is truly incredible. It always feels remarkable how easily humans from completely different walks of life can connect over music and food. No understanding of the language needed, just that immediate connection. I really love that you made the point at the end about how all humans are fundamentally the same, we have the same needs and often share the same core values: family, love, community, happiness, health…no matter where we come from and what our culture is. Videos like this are a great reminder that there is more that joins us than divides us if we’re willing to observe, learn, share, respect, and just seek to understand one another as humans. While society may call these tribes uncivilised- look how readily they welcomed a complete stranger from the western world despite them being exposed to western people very little. And then compare that to how many in the western world ostracise those from other countries, races, religions; cultures despite us having shared space with them for such a long time. I know which feels more civilised to me.

This idea of exploiting is a weird concept. Any time we enjoy another culture we are said to be exploiting it.

The questions are have you seen those people practice Canibalism in front of your both eyes? If so upload one of the canibalism practice video then? If they are cannibalist then you already eaten by them. You just an idiot KZbinr. Have you read the history or articles about Canibalism practice in Wet Papua? Or Don Richardson book? If you have a video about those people practice canibalism than you can upload it. If not then how confident are you using word of Canibalism in your opening video? Hi bro let me tell you something: Did you aware that you spread a negative mindset or image to the world community that Papuan are cannibalsts? you just using the word of cannibals for your lust and interest? Cos you will have a lot of benefit in your bank account when many people whatche, coments, like and subscribed. It’s seem like you made island of Papua/an as an object for your benefit. I suggest that You must be careful use the word of “canibalism” because you put Papua/an as in negative side, and you don’t give them anything, you took a lot of benefit from them (you are a stealer), whereas you are degrading dignity of Papua/an. (That what white people do until now in West papua: FreePort In Timika and BP in Bintuni) I want to teach you here: You must know first that West Papua has more than 250 tribes and 400 languages. Each of tribes has different way of life. Long time ago only 2/3 tribes in Papua were practiced canibalims but not to day. “NOT TO DAY”. There are some KINGMI & Reformed Churches there and schools in Koroway. The Coroway people now practice Christian life. Those people normally go to churches every Sunday and their children go to schools every day. I have a Momuna tribe friend here in New Zealand, He just finished his master degree (civilised). actually Koroway people using clothes in their everyday life not like in this KZbin., they using traditional costumes because @Drew Binsky want to made a video on KZbin. (That’s okey you have freedom to do anything as far as Koroway people like your mission but your biggest mistake is you spread out fake information that they still practice canibalims, this sound sad you put them in hell). My conclusion is: this is a kind of neo colonialism. Hope you can make any changes in this video.

Great you ventured in there and gave them the respect due despite the sensationalist title. I grew up in Papua New Guinea to the East and spent 17 years there, speak both common languages and travelled all over the country including to tribes that only had first contact with Europeans in the 1950's, especially in the Highlands. I also had many West Papuan friends and have been to Jayapura as well. My father was an anthropological film maker and spent 35 years in PNG documenting the culture and I spent lengthy periods with him on location living in villages, swimming, climbing coconuts, eating sago, yams etc. Big part of my life and yes there is a lot to learn from tribes like that. One thing you find in Melanesia is that by our terms they have little, but they actually have a better stress free life in the village, always smile and will always welcome you and give you what they have. I do get annoyed about titles that hint at current practices of cannibalism etc, as do many Melanesians when people use these titles. Simply not a practice anymore. As I said, I like that you didn't push that narrative and gave it context by saying the practice, if it still occurs, is associated with tribal warfare and ritual pay back and witchcraft and sorcery. Papua New Guinea still has sections in its laws and constitution to do with sorcery. If you ever need any contacts in PNG to get you anywhere and want to hook up with my dads old colleagues who work at the National Film Institute in Goroka, which he built and developed and are all PNGean film makers, let me know. They are also the authority in PNG who issue commercial film permits to people wishing to make larger scale commercial content.

They live totally off the land, they have real interactions with each other, no stresses (except the cannibals)… And that water was just beautiful! My favorite activity as a kid was playing in the creek in my backyard. There’s one behind the house I live in now and even at 50, you’ll still find me in it, so when I saw that water, I wished I could jump through the screen and dive right in! You were very lucky to have such a marvelous experience! I hope you go back to visit them again one day! 😊 But a word of advice, next time take bug spray… Mosquitoes seem to like type O blood best (trust me, I’m all too aware of that, myself, my husband and kids are all O and we get eaten alive) as do, apparently, other insects. Also, mosquitoes don’t seem to like the smell of patchouli and oak moss. Just some other alternatives if you’d prefer to not expose them to chemicals 😉

When you met everyone you said I kotree etc which means I offer myself to you / to you guys / to all of you. (Min 8.30) On min 13 they are announcing throughout the jungle that they are having a feast and inviting others to join them, telling others that they have a white man that looks delicious and tasty, that you came to them for free and they didn't even had to hunt you down. On minute 13.34 he looks deep into your eyes wondering how delicious you must taste. Right after the kid is chopping down a tree for the fire to grill you. They decided to let you gain some weight overnight and didn't eat you that day. The women were very disappointed by that. they wanted to have intercourse with you (look minute 10.10) and eat your manly parts. The morning after you guys went on a hunt for side dishes. Min 18.45 the women are singing and dancing because "they are going to eat well. "Minute 19.10 They didn't get "lost" in the jungle, they were searching for you, the woman, said you were with her, at that moment you were way to valuable for them to lose you, On min 19.45 they were training to cut your neck and kept announcing the feast throughout the jungle, inviting others for diner, that's why you felt scared. Min 22.40 she asks who wants to eat your manly parts with her, and who is going to eat which part (someone wanted the tip of your P). The man on minute 19.30 says he wants to eat you buttcheeks and P he sings it again on min 22.52 Martin did not misled you, he knew they were lying and are actually the Korowai tribe.

God, what's wrong with you people... These are not black people. Black people are those taken as slaves to work for Europeans. Just because they share a similar skin tone, doesn't mean they're black. Such a eurocentric way of viewing this world. These people have such different genetic markers. Some Europeans are closer related to blacks than these people.

THEY ARE NOT BLACK! DUH! THEY WOULD NEVER, EVER CONSIDER THEMSLEVES TO BE BLACK! PAPAUA NEW GUINEA HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH AFRICA IT'S NOT EVEN CLOSE IN DISTANCE. DUH.

This episode of your adventure was, by far, my favorite. Especially at 13:10 when that singing brought me to tears. Thank you for helping us understand that which is so often misunderstood. I love you too for including the native drumming upon awakening. Those bugs are brutal. A million thanks and well done, bravo

Sometimes you don’t get what you want but you are lead to what is best. You possibly avoided death. You encountered a fantastic tribe that was very kind to you and you captured so much content to share with us for educational purposes. I think we are more thankful for your sacrifice while being safer rather than sacrificing your life for something more dangerous.

In the beginning I was thinking it could take a dark turn if the guide led you in a different direction. The Mamuna were amazing and welcoming and such incredible water hunters! I’d still be interested to see the Korawai and curious as to how they have such a different belief system whilst living in similar other ways.

Their singing reminds me of the New Guinea singing dogs I heard when I was 9 years old living for 4 months just outside an exotic farm in Wisconsin, United States (now gone, along with the elderly people who lived there). Beautiful and togetherness feel, yet somehow eerie and sad (especially when sung in just the right notes) as though they're telling stories no words can describe and that are too old to recall. The memory is getting a little fuzzy, but I do remember their voices would break (as in yodeling) when raising and lowering their pitch, too. It makes me wonder who inspired who. Thank you for sharing the Maimuna tribe's singing.

I got to meet a pair of this species of singing dogs. Really helped my understanding of dogs to see the strength and feral energy. Was actually scary. This was before YT times, maybe we can see and hear them again online?

Eastern Indonesians are also famous for their melodious voices. I am happy to be part of Indonesia, my love from Java for my Papuan brothers ❤️🤍

I came to see this accidently. I am from Sri Lanka and I loved watching how you navigated in their world. I loved the way you ended this and your message. Thank you for sharing these beautiful stories.
